Should be ok with those tyres, I have the same size wheels but with 265/35/18's and needed to roll the lip up on all the guards. I can get a more indicative pic if you like.

:whistling: Does the edge of the rim protrude past the guard or is it flush .

You'll need a little negative camber to get them truly flush - otherwise the edge of the rim is very slightly outside the guard.. (only slightly though)

Some snaps. The 2 outdoors shots show prior to rolling guards front and rear, shocks removed and car lowered to get an idea of how tight it was. The one in the garage is after guards lipped and a little flaring to accommodate the rubber. Ride height is 340 rear and 350 front- hope this helps. (the last photo has the original GTR wheel on the front just in case that's confusing)

yep im gonna go for it , +12 !!

You'd never go any narrower on a GT-R. I run _12s on GTT guards, as do plenty of others.

People worry way too much and any research would point to 90% of decent GTRs either going this size or wider.
